:j:j chris81418 – well done for 20, you really are doing fab!!

Thank you BDINI!

Another NSD caught yesterday , so I'm up to 21 NSDs! Woo hoo!


Today, however will be a spendy day as I have to top up with groceries, need batteries, and as I'm spending, I may treat myself to a Euromillions ticket!


Must dash, because as usually I'm running behind schedule!

Have a good Friday everyone and I hope the good weather continues for all of us!

Hi all,

11 so far! Today will hopefully make 12. So far in the last few days haven't found any pennys or anything. Not a bean. I took my ill gotten gains to the bank on Wednesday and was promptly informed I couldn't deposit change into the bank. Apparently now banks only accept money all bagged up into the same denomination, i.e. 100 pennies, 50 2ps etc. According to the three banks I went to it's been like this for about 6 years or more. I was informed that I should consider taking my pennies to a coinsmart machine. Not an option since the fees on that are ridiculous. So I just deposited £3 in change into the account with the overdraft and left. Ho hum.

Good morning everyone:A
Didn't manage to get on here yesterday so haven't caught up with all the news/gossip, will do that later.

Hope everyone's well and, if not, here's a ((((((HUG)))))), hope it helps.

Well, it's Friday and, following the tradition, we have to have a wiggle, so here we go



Come on, join in... you know you want to :D:D

You would think banks would want to get their hands on every penny!:rotfl:
How about doing a "sealed pot" for all your "finds" A lot of us do that on here. I've got an old jar I chuck spare change into. Personally, I use it for wee treats at holiday time.
I agree with you though, those coinmart machine fees are bloomin daylight robbery!:eek:

REPORTING 2 MORE NSD WED AND THURS THAT MAKES 19 SO FAR.
Today will be a nsd if i can't borrow a small amount just for bread and milk,i've got nearly £5 in 5ps i'm about 50p short but was going to use that to top leccy up for the weekend and the copper jar not even a £.:(
Hopefully all my finances will be in better shape after i've spoken to cccs at 1oclock everyone who has mentioned them say they are really helpfull just wish i'd found them sooner things have never been this bad i'm usually good with money but the last 2 yrs things been getting harder can't even manage the lowest payments, doc put me on anti depp tabs just don't seem to have the energy to do stuff everything takes ages :sad: just putting washing on line means a sit down for a while i'm tired all the time lately oh well at least i can sit while i talk to cccs just hope i can remember everything they tell me i don't like owing money out.
When i had all the tribe at home everything was paid on time except when their dad drank most of it(he wouldnt admit he was an alcoholic) one of the best things i did was call it a day that was nearly 7 yrs ago so why do i still feel so bad?

ETA sorry for the long post didnt realise
